RUNNING INTO THE DARK A Blind Man's Record-Setting Run Across America

Gary Galone narrates this memoir about endurance and overcoming handicaps and adversity. Jason Romero, an experienced lawyer, finds himself unemployed and losing his sight from an incurable degenerative retinal disease. He learns to do everyday things and trust in his abilities. Galone's steady narration is paced to describe Romero's challenges and how he learns to run distances that gradually lengthen to 3000+ miles across the U.S. Galone adopts Romero's steady pace and self-assured, matter-of-fact tone. His pitch shifts subtly in dialogue that includes his mother and his friends. Romero's motivational message weaves through his story.
